Stepping of pay

SANJAY NIKAM (Querist) 06 August 2022 This query is : Resolved
I joined in a PSU in Jan 2002 & my junior joined in same firm in Aug 2002, Upto June 2016 my salary & promotion progress history is ahead of my junior. We both promoted in July-2016. i.e after implementation of 7 CPC. Here, I opt 7 CPC from Jan-2016 & my junior opt it from July-2016, because he was getting benefit of 1 more increment & ultimately he was fixed at higher scale then me. Now, he was getting one increment higher than mine(He was 1 increment lower then me upto June-2016) I have given a application of steppig up of pay in my HR, but they denied it by saying that "I have opt 7 CPC from Jan-2016 & my junior has opt 7 CPC from 1st July 2016, hence because of this different dates anamoly not rises & case turned down.
Is the decision of my HR is correct or I have to further raise a new anamoly of stepping of pay again. please suggest me.

Quick Summary

An employee joined a PSU in 2002, initially ahead of a junior colleague. Both were promoted in July 2016 after the 7th Central Pay Commission (CPC) implementation. The employee opted for the 7th CPC from January 2016, while the junior opted from July 2016. This difference resulted in the junior being placed at a higher pay scale. The employee's request to 'step up' their pay to match the junior's was denied by HR, who cited the different opting dates as the reason for no anomaly. The employee is seeking advice on whether the HR decision is correct or if they should pursue the matter further.

Without verifying the copy of the pay scales and your pay for both, it is not possible to form an opinion. If you go on EOL (leave on loss of pay), option to fix pay under Rule 27, etc, are general clauses to loss increments for seniors and then juniors will get one or more increments. If you have still any doubts you may ask your HR or higher authority using RTI.

In this case the anomaly appears to have been created by your own option.
